Move the calls to drm_fb_helper_alloc_info() from drivers into a
single place in fbdev helpers. Allocates struct fb_info for a new
framebuffer device. Then call drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() to
create an fbdev screen buffer. Also release the instance on errors
by calling drm_fb_helper_release_info().
Simplifies the code and fixes the error cleanup for some of the
drivers.
Regular release of the struct fb_info instance still happens in
drm_fb_helper_fini() as before.
v2:
- remove error rollback in driver implementations (kernel test robot)
- initialize info in TTM implementation (kernel test robot)

Rename drm_client_framebuffer_create() to drm_client_buffer_create_dump()
and adapt callers. The new name reflects the function's purpose. Using
dumb buffers is the easiest way for creating a GEM buffer in a drivers-
independent way.
There's also drm_client_buffer_create(), which creates the client buffer
from a preexisting buffer object. This helper can be exported for drivers
that create their own GEM buffer object.

Release client buffers with drm_client_buffer_delete() instead of
drm_client_framebuffer_delete(). The latter is just a tiny wrapper
around the former.
Move the test for !buffer into drm_client_buffer_delete(), although
all callers appear to always have a valid pointer.
v2:
- test for !buffer before deref-ing pointer (Jocelyn, Dan)

Add free callback to struct drm_client_funcs. Invoke function to
free the client memory as part of the release process. Implement
free for fbdev emulation.
Fbdev emulation allocates and prepares client memory in
drm_fbdev_client_setup(). The release happens in fb_destroy from
struct fb_ops. Multiple implementations of this callback exist in
the various drivers that provide an fbdev implementation. Each of
them needs to follow the implementation details of the fbdev setup
code.
Adding a free callback for the client puts the unprepare and release
of the fbdev client in a single place.

Rework fbdev probing to support fbdev_probe in struct drm_driver
and reimplement the old fb_probe callback on top of it. Provide an
initializer macro for struct drm_driver that sets the callback
according to the kernel configuration.
This change allows the common fbdev client to run on top of SHMEM-
based DRM drivers.

Add an fbdev emulation for SHMEM-based memory managers. The code is
similar to fbdev-generic, but does not require an additional shadow
buffer for mmap(). Fbdev-shmem operates directly on the buffer object's
SHMEM pages. Fbdev's deferred-I/O mechanism updates the hardware state
on write operations.
The memory pages of GEM SHMEM cannot be detected by fbdefio. Therefore
fbdev-shmem implements the .get_page() hook in struct fb_deferred_io.
The fbdefio helpers call this hook to retrieve the page directly from
fbdev-shmem instead of trying to detect it internally.
v3:
- clarify on get_page mechanism in commit description (Javier)
v2:
- use drm_driver_legacy_fb_format() (Geert)
